When you first activate your account you will be asked to link your Twitter account. After that you can explore every aspect of this new service. In short you may say Brizzly is Twitter enhanced. It has everything Twitter has like Search, Trends and Saved Searches and extends by including a few more amazing features that make Brizzly stand out, like:

  • inline display of video, images, and maps
  • trending topics with context
  • multiple account support
  • photo upload
  • groups
  • muting
  • drafts

Apart from that, Brizzly’s user interface is also as simple as Twitter’s giving you the option to choose between Standard (which looks like almost exactly like Twitter’s UI) and Wide view. There are also a few other minor things that you may be familiar with such as typing ‘j’ and ‘k’ to scroll tweets up and down.

Warning: After joining Brizzly, there is a chance you may never have to login via twitter.com again. :P

Here is an introduction to Brizzly, the new social media reader from Thing Labs. Enjoy!
